Yes it is on dr stream just updated my 890, now at R.007.061.49.00.P
Just been trying the clash management, thats a big improvement.
Although I do all my planning from the sky+ iPad app now, it will be a big improvement for many.
What's changed regarding clash management in this version that wasn't in the last version?

What's the difference with the clash management. I can't see any difference
Got an update yesterday.
When I turned my box on, there was a screen saying the box has been updated, press select to see what's new:
- Eco mode
- Can now order PPV without a phone line connected
- 5.1 through HDMI (no optical needed)
- A reminder that there is a deleted tab in the planner
Just the 5.1 via HDMI is for me a HUGE thing. No more optical cable needed.

5.1 over HDMI has been around since March, it's just now Sky have realised they need to let people know what's new in each update otherwise the features don't get used unless you go hunting around to see what's new.
Had the R.007 update
Do we still need phone line attached? Engineer insisted last time when he came
I have to have phone cable all round room and through hall into office, would love to remove
I order anything I want through on demand, never used phone
My sky box is connected to sky router
Sorry to be a pain I am not sure how to do that and I am not sure wether I should do it myself or wait until dad comes home I don't want to mess things up.

Switch off box at mains
Hold backup button down on front of box
keep it held down while switching box back on and eventually you will get a message saying software update in progress but you must keep the backup button held down to that message comes up

If you only have the one box and not multiroom, you can ditch the phoneline connection. However, checking your account via Sky Active still requires the phoneline connection for the time being if that would be an issue.

I didn't have the feature until this update.
Every each updates, I check all the menus to see what's new and 5.1 via HDMI wasn't there before today

It'll be the same as the one for the 890, so it's on there now:).

Thank you both.
No real date publicaly available, sky just said about autumn time.
It's been in there a while hasn't it.
Dunno. First time i've seen it anyway (maybe it has been there for a while) somebody might be able to correct me

Maybe you were in a beta test or something...

Or more likely your box missed the R006 update with DD5.1 over HDMI in it...
It's been there for quite some time.
It's been there on previous updates, your box must have been on an older firmware.
